Play Chris Carson as a Favorite

Until someone tells Pete Carroll that the Seattle Seahawks drafted a running back in the first round, they'll continue to roll with Chris Carson, who is averaging 16 attempts per game despite fighting through injuries.

This week, he'll face the San Francisco 49ers at home as a 10.0-point favorite. When the Seahawks are favored, Carson has seen a slight boost in fantasy points, but most importantly, he gets an additional 6.8 carries in these games.

The Seahawks' offense is surging, scoring the sixth-most points (29.3) over their last three games, and Carson leads the team in red zone carries. Opportunity on an offense trending upwards makes Carson a lock in cash games.
